Eberron (1st-6th Campaign)

[Rabbit]

I am looking to run an Eberron Campaign likely to start up around January; once the holiday season dies down.

Characters will advance from 1st to 6th Level.

The campaign will include four premade adventures that will carry the core story arc. There will also be a couple homemade adventures in between that will focus on the characters and their places in the world thus far (basically, things that suit the developing characters and player interests.)

The pre-made adventures I will be using are The Forgotten Forge, Shadows of the Last War, Whisper of the Vampire's Blade, and Grasp of the Emerald Claw. I am looking forward to using these adventures because I think they do a good job at introducing the setting and technology of Eberron.

This is a close ended campaign (ends after 6th level) because I like to have a series styled and continuing game to run, but want to know that there is a finale. I think some of you agree that while it is fun to play an ongoing game we can not commit to an open ended eternity.

Should the game prove to be a popular success then (after a break) I may start up a second campaign (perhaps 7th to 12th), but I like the idea of breaking game play into segments.

So, let me know if you are intersted and if you are let me know 1) what days you are available to play, 2) what days you would prefer to play, and 3) what days you can not play.

Please let me know one way or the other because depending on the interest level I may ask some other potential players that do not frequent this site.

I love Eberron!

1) Mon-Thurs anytime, Sunday at 8pm

2) Mon or Wed evening, and preferably not the same day 2 weeks in a row.

3) Fri or Sat

I'm interested. Tuesdays and Thursdays are pretty good for me. (Tuesdays being better) I'd rather try to avoid playing both this game and Reefwoods in the same week as my schedule is pretty tight these days.

I feel the same way so that should not be a problem.

Ha, yeah... I remember doing this sort of thing back in the day, but now it would overload my brain, heh.

Glad we're all on the same page with that. It's amazing how all of our lives have changed over the years. Is there any theme to the campaign? Direction we should lean our characters?

Yes, but I'll get into all that later. For now I just want to see who is interested in playing.

Yeah, I'm definitely interested. Tuesdays and Thursdays are also best for me, but with some advanced notice, I can usually do any night.

Just an FYI I am starting to ramp up the preparations for this game that will likely start in mid January (perhaps Jan 11th?)

For scheduling I would like to aim for Tuesdays and play once a week during an adventure and take at least a week off in between adventures. I hope that will be a good tempo to keep the pace up but not make people feel over burdened. Also, with Reefwood's War Stories game still running I am sure we can work around each other to avoid both games playing in the same week.

Again, this is a series that runs 1st to 6th level at which point the story arch comes to some sort of a conclusion and depending on everyone's interest a second story arch may follow (after a break.)

For character creation you can start brainstorming, but the first table meeting will be for character building, and depending on time we may start the first adventure (but I am focused on character building.) So while you start brainstorming I would prefer people come to the table with some flexibility in their concepts. I find when a group makes characters together they tend to create a more well rounded and cohesive group.

A character creation session sounds great! I will probably use an Eberron race or class/feats for my character.
